Emotions may come up during this process, but they gradually return to the pool of feelings from which they came.To play what you feel requires nothing more than being present at the piano and having a little skill in being able to improvise. For example, in creating Lesson #35: "Moss Garden" certain decisions were made in the beginning. The sound was determined (pentatonic). Chords were chosen and a technique was chosen too (broken chord).With these decisions out of the way it becomes a matter of playing around with the possibilities. And from this playing comes a music that is not forced or willed into being. On the contrary, feeling is allowed to be expressed normally and naturally. It becomes an easy thing to do, just like freewriting.
